Hi gang. Just got this from John. I have replaced the files in our ftp
link with the new ones he sent me.<br><br>
<b>NEAR FINAL PROPOSALS FOR THE<i> 2011 NEC </i> 1 October 2008<br><br>
</b>These near final proposals (51) are being circulated to the members
of the PV Industry Forum via e-mail.<br><br>
These near final proposals include new proposals and revisions to
previous proposals as result of the PV Industry Forum Meeting in
Albuquerque on 24 and 25 September<br>
These proposals are in the final form (proposal with strike outs and
underlines) required by NFPA and they have been edited to meet<i> NEC
Style Manual</i> requirements. They have not yet been placed on the
NFPA proposal submittal forms.<br><br>
To avoid confusion, please review the 690.14 set of proposals by reading
"690.14 Overview" first followed by "690.14
Introduction"and then the remainder of the 690.14
submissions.<br><br>
<font color="#FF0000"><b><i>Final review will be by Ward Bower, the
Chairperson of the PV Industry Forum. Comments on these near
final proposals should be sent to Ward with an info copy to me.<br><br>
</i></b></font>Submission to NFPA will be by both web entry and paper
means.<br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Hello wrenches. Received this
yesterday, and wanted you all to have access to the nearly 50 files that
were included. I suggest that if you are interested in participating in
the future, that you get on John's email list as I somehow have.<br><br>
The files are here, available by anonymous ftp. Usually your Web browser
will handle this just fine.<br>

<font face="Times New Roman, Times"><b>DRAFT-6 PROPOSALS FOR THE<i> 2011
NEC<br>
</i>5 September 2008<br><br>
<br>
</b>These draft proposals are being circulated to the members of the PV
Industry Forum via e-mail. New members are added as they ask to be
included from the Solar ABCs web site or by direct contact by e-mail to
me. <br><br>
Draft 6 includes new proposals and revisions to previous proposals.
All Forum members should visit the Solar ABCs Building Electrical Codes
Panel web page at least once to read the introductory
information.<br><br>

<a href="http://www.solarabcs.org/" eudora="autourl">
http://www.SolarABCS.org</a><br><br>
</u></font><font face="Times New Roman, Times">The drafts will have three
sections in most cases. They are the proposal, the substantiation,
and comments to the Forum for information purposes. As
the drafts evolve, they will be tailored to meet the NFPA/NEC Style
Manual requirements. Near the due date of late October 2008, the
drafts will be placed on the electronic forms required by
NFPA.</font><br>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times">Each new MS Word draft will have
changes from the previous drafts noted in red. I will note the new
proposals, the proposals that have minor (editorial, grammatical-ED)
changes, or those that have major revisions in the cover e-mail so that
you will not have to review every proposal on each draft. Each
proposal will appear as a separate document. <br><br>
Coordination will be by e-mail to me.
</font><font face="Times New Roman, Times" color="#FF0000">PLEASE DO NOT
USE THE<i> REPLY TO ALL</i> Button-THE SPAMBOTS are out there
waiting.</font><font face="Times New Roman, Times"> I will
acknowledge all inputs. Feel free to use MS Word track
changes. In many cases, your suggestions will be implemented.
If not, I will attempt to explain why in my response to the
submitter. If you still feel strongly about the issue, I will add
your comments/suggestions to the next draft. If we don't reach some
sort of agreement, individuals may submit proposals directly to NFPA,
although conflicting proposals tend to hinder the code making process and
may result in less than desirable code. Article 690 and 705 will
move to Code Making panel 4 for the<i> 2011 NEC</i> cycle.</font><br>
